“Summertime is always the best of what might be.”

- Charles Bowden

Nowhere is that more true than in Montecito, where the season brings a fresh wave of energy with sun-soaked days, spontaneous beach gatherings, dinners on Coast Village Road, and a renewed focus on living well.

The real estate market remained active in Q2, with 48 closed sales and a noticeable shift in pricing. The average sale price was $6.46M, with a median of $6.25M — a 22.5% decline from last year’s $8.34M average. While the overall sales volume was lower we noticed a shift in momentum. More buyers stepped off the sidelines, ready to act when quality and pricing aligned.

Looking into Q3, while summer is a bit slower, we typically see many good sales in the third quarter: Q3 2024 had 39 sales and Q3 2023 had 43 closed sales. With 11 properties already in escrow, it will be interesting to see how this year stacks up.
